Solaris is a trademark or registered trademark of Oracle and/or its
affiliates in the United States and other countries.

illumos and Solaris diverged a decade ago; we're a different operating
system now.  Using "Solaris" anywhere near the software will only
confuse people into thinking it's compatible with Oracle Solaris in
some way, which it is not.


Cheers.
